1 Katika mwaka wa kwanza wa Dario Mmedi, mimi mwenyewe nilikuja kumwezesha na kumlinda Mikaeli.
And I in year one of Darius the Mede standing my [was] to a strengthener and to a protection for him.
2 Na sasa nitakufunulia ukweli. Wafalme watatu watainuka katika Uajemi, na mfalme wa nne atakuwa tajiri sana kuliko wengine wote. Na wakati atakapopata nguvu kupitia utajiri wake, atamwamsha kila mtu kinyume na ufalme wa Ugiriki.
And now truth I will tell to you there! yet three kings [are] about to arise for Persia and the fourth [king] he will gain wealth wealth great more than everyone and according to strength his by wealth his he will stir up everyone [the] kingdom of Greece.
3 Mfalme wenye nguvu atainuka ambaye atatawala ufalme mkubwa, na ataenenda kufuatana na matakwa yake mwenyewe.
And he will arise a king mighty and he will have dominion dominion great and he will do according to pleasure his.
4 Na atakapokuwa ameinuka, ufalme wake utavunjika na utagawanyika katika pepo nne za mbinguni, lakini hawatakuwa wazao wake mwenyewe, na si kwa nguvu zake kwa wakati alipokuwa akitawala. Kwa kuwa ufalme wake utang'olewa kwa ajili ya wengine tofauti na wazawa wake.
And just as arises he it will be broken up kingdom his and it will be divided to [the] four [the] winds of the heavens and not to posterity his and not like dominion his which he had dominion for it will be plucked up kingdom his and to others besides these.
5 Mfalme wa Kusini atakuwa na nguvu, lakini mmoja kati ya maamiri jeshi wake atakuwa mwenye nguvu kuliko yeye na atautawala ufalme wake kwa nguvu kubwa.
So he may become strong [the] king of the south and one of commanders his so he may become strong on him and he will exercise dominion [will be] a dominion great dominion his.
6 Baada ya miaka michache, wakati muda utakapokuwa sawa, watafanya mwungano. Binti wa mfalme wa Kusini atakuja kwa mfalme wa Kaskazini kuyathibitisha makubaliano yao. Lakini hataweza kuzitunza nguvu za mkono wake, wala mfalme hatasimama wala mkono wake. Ataachwa na wale waliomleta, na baba yake, na yeye aliyemwunga mkono katika nyakati hizo.
And to [the] end of years they will make an alliance and [the] daughter of [the] king of the south she will come to [the] king of the north to do uprightness and not she will retain [the] power of the arm and not he will stand arm his so she may be given up she and [those who] brought her and the [one who] fathered her and [the one who] strengthened her in the times.
7 Lakini tawi kutoka katika mizizi yake litachipuka katika nafasi yake. Atalishambulia jeshi na kuingia ngome ya mfalme wa Kaskazini. Atapigana nao, na atawashinda.
And he will arise one of [the] shoot[s] of roots her place his so he may come against the army so he may go in [the] stronghold of [the] king of the north and he will do with them and he will prevail.
8 Ataichukua miungu yao mpaka Misri pamoa na sanamu zao za chuma na vyombo vyao vya fedha na vya dhahabu vyenye thamani. Kwa miaka mingi atakaa mbali na mfalme wa Kaskazini.
And also gods their with molten images their with [the] vessels of desire their silver and gold in captivity he will take Egypt and he years he will stand away from [the] king of the north.
9 Kisha mfalme wa Kaskazini atauvamia ufalme wa mfalme wa Kusini, lakini atajitoa na kwenda katika nchi yake mwenyewe.
And he will go in [the] kingdom of [the] king of the south and he will return to own land his.
10 Wana wake watajiweka tayari na kuunganisha jeshi kubwa. Litaendelea kukua na litagharikisha kila kitu, litapita katikati hadi kwenye ngome yake.
(And sons his *Q(K)*) they will wage war and they will gather a multitude of armies great and it will go certainly and it will overflow and it will pass over and it will return (so it may wage war *Q(K)*) to (stronghold his. *Q(K)*)
11 Ndipo mfalme wa Kusini atakasirika, na ataenda na kupigana naye, mfalme wa Kaskazini. Mfalme wa Kaskazini atainua jeshi kubwa, bali jeshi litatiwa katika mkono wake.
So he may be enraged [the] king of the south and he will go out and he will engage in battle with him with [the] king of the north and he will raise up a multitude great and it will be given the multitude in hand his.
12 Jeshi litachukuliwa, na moyo wa mfalme wa Kusini utainuliwa juu, na atawafanya makumi maelfu kuanguka, lakini hataweza kuwa mshindi.
And it will be carried off the multitude (and it will be lifted up *Q(K)*) heart his and he will make fall tens of thousands and not he will prevail.
13 Kisha mfalme wa Kaskazini atainua jeshi jingine, kubwa kuliko la kwanza. Baada ya miaka kadhaa, mfalme wa Kaskazini atakuja na jeshi kubwa likiwa na vifaa vingi.
And he will return [the] king of the north and he will raise up a multitude great more than the first and to [the] end of the times years he will come certainly with an army large and with equipment much.
14 Katika siku hizo wengi watainuka kinyume na mfalmea wa Kusini. Wana wa vurugu miongoni mwa watu wake watasimama wao wenyewe ili kuyatimiliza maono, lakini watajikwaa.
And in the times those many [people] they will arise on [the] king of the south and [the] sons of - [the] violent ones of people your they will exalt themselves to fulfill [the] vision and they will stumble.
15 Mfalme wa Kaskazini atakuja, kuizingira nchi kwa kuweka vilima, na kuuteka mji wenye ngome. Majeshi ya Kusini hayataweza kusimama, hata wanajeshi wake bora. Hawatakuwa na nguvu za kusimama.
And he may come [the] king of the north so he may pour out a mound and he will capture a city of fortifications and [the] forces of the south not they will stand and [the] people of choicest ones his and there not [will be] strength to stand.
16 Badala yake, yeye ajaye ataenenda kwa kufuata tamaa zake kinyume chake; hakuna yeyote atakayesimama katika njia yake. Atasimama katika nchi ya uzuri, na uharibifu utakuwa mkononi wake.
And he will do the [one who] comes against him according to pleasure his and there not [will be one who] stands before him so he may stand in [the] land of beauty and complete destruction [will be] in hand his.
17 Mfalme wa Kaskazini atauelekeza uso wake ili kuja kwa nguvu za ufalme wake wote, na kutakuwa na makubaliano atakayoyafanya na mfalme wa Kusini. Atampatia katika ndoa binti wa wanawake ili kuuharibu ufalme wa Kusini. Lakini mpango huo hautafanikiwa wala kumsaidia.
And he will set - face his to come with [the] power of all kingdom his and upright [things] with him and he will do and [the] daughter of the women he will give to him to destroy it and not it will stand and not to him it will happen.
18 Baada ya hayo, mfalme atafuatilia nchi za pwani na ataziteka nchi nyingi. Lakini amiri jeshi atakikomesha kiburi chake na atakisababisha kiburi chake kiishe.
(And he will set *Q(K)*) face his to [the] coastlands and he will capture many [people] and he will put an end to a commander scorn his for him not scorn his he will turn back to him.
19 Kisha atafuatilia miji yenye ngome katika nchi yake mwenyewe, lakini atajikwaa na kuanguka; na hatapatikana tena.
And he will turn face his to [the] strongholds of own land his and he will stumble and he will fall and not he will be found.
20 Kisha mtu mwingine atainuka katika nafasi ambaye atamfanya mtoza ushuru apite kwa ajili ya ufahari wa ufalme. Lakini katika siku zijazo atakatiliwa mbali, lakini si kwa hasira wala si katika vita.
And he will arise on place his [one who] will send through an oppressor [the] splendor of a kingdom and in days one he will be broken and not in anger and not in battle.
21 Katika nafasi atainuka mtu wa kudharauliwa ambaye watu hawatampa heshima ya nguvu ya kifalme; atakuja bila kukusudiwa na atautwaa ufalme kwa ulaghai.
And he will arise on place his a despicable [person] and not people had given to him [the] honor of royalty and he will come in quietness and he will take hold of royalty by intrigues.
22 Mbele yake, kila jeshi litafutiliwa mbali kama gharika. Jeshi na kiongozi wa agano wataangamizwa wote kwa pamoja.
And [the] forces of the flood they will be swept away from to before him so they may be broken and also a prince of a covenant.
23 Tangu katika kipindi kile ambacho makubaliano yalifanywa pamoja naye, ataenenda kwa kwa hila; atakuwa mwenye nguvu akiwa na watu wachache tu.
And from when made an alliance with him he will act deceit and he will rise and he will become mighty with fewness of a nation.
24 Kwa ghafla ataingia katika sehemu tajiri sana za jimbo, na atafanya kile ambacho si baba yake wala baba wa baba yake alishakifanya. Atagawanya mateka, nyara, na mali zake miongoni mwa wafuasi wake. Atapanga mpango wa kuiangusha ngome, lakini ni kwa muda tu.
In quietness and in [the] fertile places of [the] province he will come and he will do [that] which not they did ancestors his and [the] ancestors of ancestors his plunder and booty and property to them he will scatter and on strongholds he will plan plans his and until a time.
25 Ataamsha nguvu zake na moyo wake kinyume na mfalme wa Kusini kwa jeshi kubwa. Mfalme wa Kusini atapigana vita akiwa na jeshi kubwa lenye nguvu, lakini hataweza kusimama kwa kuwa wengine watafanya njama dhidi yake.
And he will stir up strength his and heart his on [the] king of the south with an army large and [the] king of the south he will get ready for the battle with an army large and mighty up to muchness and not he will stand for people will plan on him plans.
26 Hata wale wanaokula chakula chake kizuri watajaribu kumwangamiza. Jeshi lake litakatiliwa mbali kama gharika, na wengi wao watauawa.
And [those who] eat deli-cacies his they will break him and army his it will overflow and they will fall slain [ones] many.
27 Wafalme wote hawa wawili, wakiwa na mioyo yao imejawa na uovu kinyume na mwenzake, watakaa katika meza moja na kudanganyana, lakini haitakuwa na maana yoyote. Kwa kuwa mwisho utatokea katika kipindi ambacho kimeshapangwa.
And [the] two of them the kings heart their [will be] to evil and at a table one falsehood they will speak and not it will succeed for yet [the] end [is] to the appointed time.
28 Kisha mfalme wa Kaskazini atarudi katika nchi yake akiwa na utajiri mkubwa, na moyo wake ukipinga vikali agano takatifu. Atatenda na kisha atarudi katika nchi yake mwenyewe.
And he will return own land his with property great and heart his [will be] on [the] covenant of holiness and he will act and he will return to own land his.
29 Katika muda uloamriwa atarudi na kuushambulia ufalme wa Kusini. Lakini katika kipindi hiki hakitakuwa kama awali.
To the appointed time he will return and he will come in the south and not it will be as the former [time] and as the latter [time].
30 Kwa kuwa meli kutoka Kitimu zitamshambulia, naye ataogopa na kurudi nyuma. Atakuwa mwenye hasira dhidi ya agano takatifu, na atawaonyesha mema wale watakaoliacha agano takatifu.
And they will come on him ships of Kittim and he will be disheartened and he will turn back and he will direct indignation towards [the] covenant of holiness and he will act and he will turn back and he will pay attention on [those who] forsake [the] covenant of holiness.
31 Majeshi yake yatainuka na kukufuru sehemu takatifu katika ngome. Wataziondoa sadaka za kawaida za kuteketezwa, na watasimamisha chukizo la uharibifu litakalosababisha ukiwa.
And forces from him they will arise and they will profane the sanctuary the stronghold and they will abolish the perpetual [offering] and they will set up the abomination desolating.
32 Na kwa wale walioenenda kwa ouvu kinyume na agano, atawadanganya na kuwatia uovu. Bali watu wale wanaomjua Mungu wao watakuwa jasiri na watachukua hatua.
And [those who] act wickedly of [the] covenant he will pollute with flattering [words] and a people [which] knows God its they will display strength and they will act.
33 Watu wenye hekima miongobi mwa watu watawafanya watu waelewe. Lakini watajikwaa kwa upanga na kwa miali ya moto; watatiwa mateka na kunyang'anywa kwa siku.
And [those who] have insight of [the] people they will give understanding to the many [people] and they will stumble by sword and by flame by captivity and by plunder days.
34 Katika siku za kujikwaa kwao, watasaidiwa kwa msaada kidogo. Watu wengi watajiunga nao wenyewe katika unafiki.
And when stumble they they will be helped help a little and they will join themselves to them many [people] by intrigues.
35 Baadhi ya watu wenye hekima watajikwaa ili kujisafisha kutokee kwao, na kujiosha, na kujitakasa, mpaka wakati wa mwisho. Kwa kuwa wakati ulioamriwa haujaja bado.
And some of those [who] have insight they will stumble to refine them and to purge [them] and to purify [them] until [the] time of [the] end for [it is] still to the appointed time.
36 Mfalme atafanya kutokana na matakwa yake. Atajiinua mwenyewe na kujifanya mkubwa kuliko kila mungu. Kinyume cha Mungu wa miungu, atasema vitu vibaya, kwa kuwa atafanikiwa mpaka pale ghadhabu itakapokuwa imekamilika. Kwa ajili kile kilichoamriwa kitakapokuwa kimefanyika.
And he will do according to pleasure his the king so he may exalt himself and he may magnify himself above every god and on [the] God of gods he will speak extraordinary [things] and he will succeed until it has been completed indignation for [what has been] decreed it will be done.
37 Hatazijali miungu ya baba zake wala mungu anayependwa na wanawake. Wala hatamjali mungu mwingine yeyote. Kwa kuwa zaidi ya mtu yeyote atajifanya mwenyewe kuwa mkuu.
And on [the] gods of ancestors his not he will pay attention and on [the] desire of women and on any god not he will pay attention for above all he will magnify himself.
38 Atamheshimu mungu wa ngome badala ya haya. Ni mungu ambaye baba zake hawakumkubali ambaye atamheshimu kwa dhahabu na fedha, kwa mawe ya thamani na zawadi zenye kuthaminiwa.
And a god of strongholds on place its he will honor and a god which not they knew it ancestors his he will honor with gold and with silver and with stone costly and with precious things.
39 Atazishambulia ngome imara sana kwa msaada wa mungu mgeni. Atampa heshima kubwa yeyote anayemkubali. Atawafanya kuwa watawala juu ya watu wengi, na ataigawanya nchi kama thawabu.
And he will act to [the] fortresses of strongholds with a god of foreignness [one] who (he acknowledges *Q(K)*) he will increase honor and he will make rule them over the many [people] and land he will divide up for a price.
40 Kwa wakati wa mwisho mfalme wa Kusini atamshambulia. Mfalme wa Kaskazini atamvamia kwa ukali wa magari na wapanda farasi, na meli nyingi. Naye ataenda kinyume cha nchi, kuwagharikisha, na kupita katikati.
And at [the] time of [the] end he will wage war with him [the] king of the south so he may storm on him [the] king of the north with chariotry and with horsemen and with ships many and he will go in lands and he will overflow and he will pass through.
41 Naye ataingia katika nchi ya uzuri, makumi elfu ya Waisraeli wataanguka. Lakini watu hawa watatoroka kutoka katika mkono wake: Waedomu, Wamoabu, na mabaki ya watu wa Amoni.
And he will come in [the] land of beauty and many [people] they will stumble and these they will escape from hand his Edom and Moab and [the] first of [the] people of Ammon.
42 Naye ataunyosha mkono katika nchi; nchi ya Misri haitaokolewa.
So he may stretch out hand his on lands and [the] land of Egypt not it will become an escaped remnant.
43 Atakuwa na mamlaka juu ya hazina za dhahabu na za fedha, na juu ya utajiri wote wa Misri; watu wa Libya na Ethiopia watakuwa chini katika nyayo za miguu yake.
And he will rule over [the] treasures of gold and silver and over all [the] precious things of Egypt and Libyans and Cushites [will be] in footsteps his.
44 Lakini taarifa kutoka mashariki na kaskazini zitamwogopesha, naye atatoka akiwa mwenye hasira nyingi kuwa ili kuwaharibu kabisa na kuwahifadhi kwa ajli ya uharibifu.
And reports they will dismay him from [the] east and from [the] north and he will go out in rage great to destroy and to totally destroy many [people].
45 Naye ataisimamisha hema ya makao yake ya kifalme kati ya bahari na milima ya uzuri wa utakatifu. Ataufikia mwisho wake, na hapatakuwa na msaidizi wa kumsadia.
So he may pitch [the] tents of palace his between [the] seas and [the] mountain of [the] beauty of holiness and he will come to end his and not a helper [will belong] to him.
